Moving into a new environment, whether you are living in residence or commuting from home, can be quite a drastic change! To  help ease this transition, we have outlined some important advice on adapting to your new environment and making the most of your time here at Laurier.

Living on Campus

If you are living in residence, you may be wondering about roomates, sharing a bathroom and adapting to being on your own.

Living on Campus... What to Expect! Roomates, your don and adjusting to living in residence.

Do I have all I need? is a very common for students to ask themselves before leaving home.

Getting Involved on Campus

Are you wondering about getting involved on campus? Visit our, Life Outside the Classroom Page for tips on getting involved on campus in first year.

What happens during the first week of school? How will I know where my classes are? How will I get to know my roomates and other first years?

Orientation week is aimed at answering all these questions and more, while welcoming you to the Golden Hawk family.
